DSS specific information: Assigning the clinical urgency category is a clinical decision by the radiation oncologist. Individual service providers may use various more detailed clinical urgency sub-categories to assist in prioritising patients for treatment (e.g. semi-urgent, routine, etc), all of these sub-categories should be mapped to one of the two urgency categories provided. If the emergency status of a course of radiotherapy treatment changes during the planning or delivery of a course of radiotherapy treatment, the new status should be reported, not the original. Each separate course delivered to a patient may have a different emergency status.Radiotherapy waiting times DSS 2013-15 Health, Superseded 13/11/2013 Implementation start date: 01/07/2013 Implementation end date: 30/06/2015 DSS specific information: Assigning the clinical urgency category is a clinical decision by the radiation oncologist.
